+## Documentation
+
+There are two ways to install the documentation locally. The result will be stored in _\imxweb\documentation\<projectname>_.
+
+### 1. Using Compodoc (preferred)
+1. Install the Compodoc package globally by running `npm install -g @compodoc/compodoc`.
+2. Navigate to the library to create documentation for (e.g. `imxweb\projects\qer`).
+3. Run `compodoc -p tsconfig.lib.json` for a library or `compodoc -p tsconfig.app.json` for an application.
+
+### 2. Using npm only
+
+This method only works for `qbm`, `qer` and the applications.
+
+1. Navigate to _imxweb_.
+2. run `npm run doc:<projectname>`
